Many modern home theatre setups use two displays, either in the form of a dropdown lower screen along with a flat panel display or a display and projector combination. Gefen is addressing this setup by introducing the Gefen 1:2 Splitter for HDMI v1.3 to allow for the same HD program to be viewed on multiple displays.

This product features a single HDMI input that supports the entire range of the HDMI interface, and two HDMI outputs that connect to the two displays in order to emit flawless video that supports Dolby TrueHD and DTS Master Audio.

This HDMI splitter is fully equipped to handle all of the third generation gaming consoles, Blu-Ray Players and set-top boxes on the market. It is capable of displaying resolutions reaching 1080p, but both displays should be set to the same resolution in order to achieve the highest quality video. The Gefen 1:2 Splitter can also be used to emit video across more than two displays if they are cascaded.
